FINNISH SAUNA
The quiet atmosphere is one of the many advantages of the Finnish sauna, the healing properties of which have been used for hundreds years by people who want to maintain a healthy body and spirit. A bath in the Finnish sauna, where the temperature reaches 100°C, involves a series of alternating overheating and cooling down the whole body, which significantly stimulates vitality and regenerates the body. According to doctors, the Finnish sauna is extremely beneficial in the treatment of respiratory diseases, rhinitis, colds and gynecological problems.
A new attraction of the swimming pool is a Finnish sauna, next to which a tub for cooling down the body has been placed. We have also prepared a place for rest and relaxation.
The sauna can be used by a maximum of 15 people at the same time.
The use of the sauna is an additional service for people using the swimming pool. In this case, a different price for using the swimming pool and sauna will apply – a combined ticket. Purchasing a sauna ticket enables the customers to use the swimming pool. However, purchasing a ticket to use the swimming pool does not enable the customers to use the sauna (a sauna ticket must be purchased before entering the Electronic Customer Service System zone).
